Details

&playchannel will play either the left or right audio stream-only for an incoming stereo stream.

It will play back the selected channel as mono audio, dropping other channels from the playback. &playchannel=1 is left channel; 2 is right; and if multi channel works for you, then you can target 6 different channels.

This is useful if you wanted to capture the left and right audio channels of a remote guest in OBS in different browser sources, without having to do any fancy audio routing on the studio side.

Both left and right audio channels are still sent; it's just during local playback that the non-selected channels are dropped, so it's not as efficient as local routing, nor will both channel be in exact sync anymore either.

This will not currently work in conjunction with &panning of &channeloffset; and will override those options.
